There is a debate raging in the sports world about the role of transgender women athletes, with sports superstars like Martina Navratilova vocally opposing the trend (and getting ousted from an LBGT group for dropping a truth bomb).

Meanwhile, in Connecticut, two transgenders won first and second place in the Girls Indoor Track Championship.

Andraya Yearwood hears the comments, usually from adults and usually not to her face.

She shouldn’t be running, they say, not against girls.

Yearwood, a 17-year-old junior at Cromwell High School, is one of two transgender high school sprinters in Connecticut, transitioning to female.

She recently finished second in the 55-meter dash at the state open indoor track championships. The winner, Terry Miller of Bloomfield High, is also transgender and set a girls state indoor record of 6.95 seconds. Yearwood finished in 7.01 seconds and the third-place competitor, who is not transgender, finished in 7.23 seconds.

Miller and Yearwood also topped the 100-meter state championships last year, and Miller won the 300 this season.

Critics say their gender identity amounts to an unfair advantage, expressing a familiar argument in a complex debate for transgender athletes as they break barriers across sports around the world from high school to the pros.

These two sprinters also took the top spots last year, and appeared on Good Morning America to discuss the controversy surrounding their competing against biological females.

“a familiar argument in a complex debate for transgender athletes”
This is not complex at all, those born with male genatalia are male, female organs are female. Does not include those born with ambiguous or both. See, nothing to it.

Progressives asked for this when they started pushing the notion that boys and girls are equal at everything. It was only a matter of time before some boys took advantage, and now that the trans lobby practically rules progressive circles they have no graceful way to back out.

The fact that these two would even want to participate while having XY Genes and have unfair advantage, speaks volumes about them, their parents, and other enablers.

But just to be the perfect fools that they all are, why not have them compete in the Special Olympics or against another in a wheel chair or on crutches to succeed in adorning themselves with more “Particiaption Trophies”??

When is this insanity going to produce enough humiliation and shame to stop this BS?? Are we going to see this appear at the Olympics too?? It seems that the rist step is having self respect.
